Looking further back

pibtracker launched 1 March 2026. Before that date, we operated as a private filter for Aditya Tiwari Sir's Law Optional batches at De Facto IAS since 2018. The backtest pages use 2021–2026 UPSC papers to demonstrate what the engine would have caught in the years before public launch; the monthly compilations begin with March 2026, our first public month. The 2027 yearly pre-Prelims booklet will be the first complete annual cycle that subscribers experience end-to-end.
